COMMON ERRORS CORRECTED.


Exaggerated Notions which Even Scien-
tiic Observers Have Endorsed.
Ignorant folk, wondermongers and even
scientific observers have disseminated many
erroneous and exaggerated notions which are
not readily eradicated. We are still told for
instance, Of the Norwegian maelstrpm. a
frightful whirling chasrn in the sea capable
of sucking down the largest ships, though in
reality this fearful whirlpool" is sinriy a
run of the tide through 8 sloping channel is
rarely dangerous, and then chiefly on &C unit
of the rocks on which it may draw vessels
Sir John Herschei gave his Endorsement to
the statement that stars may be seen in the
daytime from the bottom of a well, but this
has been proven to be an error by tests from
q shaft nearly half a mile deep
Mr John Murdoch has recently shown that
the Eskimos do not es text books Of nhy
sioiogy affirm, doze through their long winter
night, keeping up their bodily heat by enor
NOUS meals Of raw blubber and lamp oil. but
that their winter life is active. their food
mostly cooked and their consumption of oil
not excessive. A still widely accepted belief
is that the hair snake is a wonderful trans
formation Of horses hair when kt I in
water. though these odd creatures known to
from eggs. and il early stages inhabit the
bodies OF insects. A very old idea. without
foundation in fact. is that erocodiles shed
mournful tears while stories of toads ina
prisoned in solid rock are numerous and sup
ported by much evidence, but have probably
resulted from imperfect observation
Accounts OF the termination of grain from
the mummy pits of Egypt have arisen from
deception practiced by the Arabs in placing
fresh seeds with the belongings of she mum
mics Though now known to be incorrect,
the inference that the moon influences the
weather Is very natural one to unframed
observers, and is far less absurd than thou

In third class railway carriage containing

Of organisms that were falling on one square
foot por minute was 395. Soon after this the
carriage was filed, containing ten persons,
after which it was found that the number

At q distance from land of ninety sea miles
the average Of the experiments gave one

ments made at minimum distance of 1870 sea

a Police CAPTAINS Experience,

he sat With his wife, q couple OF gentlemen
near by began to discuss the police force Of
New York, when one OF them dropped into 6
talk about Capt. Williams himself. Accord

Capt. Williams was about the toughest ana
worst Of Gods creation. Capt Williams
stood it for . long time, being tempered by
the fact that his wife's hand was On his richl
arm with restraining pressure. He finally
. turned round and said: ~ beg your pardon.

The young fellow evidently had manly quail

GREAT aIsKs-EYoRMoUs PROFITS.

The temptation to run great risks IL order
TO pocket these great profits is enormous
particularly as the Soudanese are in desper
ate need OF trade goods, and the slavers have
only to return home with cloth and other de.
sirable commodities to reap another large
harvest. The slave trade is now stimulated
not only by the great profits Of the business,
but also by the fact that all trade is contra
band. The merchants run just as great risks
if they are caught with ostrich feathers or
ivory, on which the profit is much less than
on slaves. They are therefore combining
themselves TO slaves.

them from hhartoum to the coast. One
party that recently left Khartoum 800 strong
reached the coast only 200 in number The
bones of the other hundred strew the route
from BerDer to the sea. 1t is said that about
5000 slaves have been smuggled across the
Red Sea to Jeddah since jan l. It is re-
markable that the semi barbarians of the
Soudan are able to carry on so large a trade
in these. Every dhow whose hold is packed
with black merchandise crosses the busy
highway followed by most CT the vessels ply

A few weeks ago it was announced in the
house of commons that the slave trade had
been reopened on large scale on the north
east coast Of Africa. Sir J. Ferguson, the
under secretary of state for foreign affairs,
said that both the English and French govern
rnents had taken energetic steps to suppress
the evil. Since that time British vessels in
the Red sea have captured four slave dhows
and the Egyptian government has fitted them
up as cruisers for the suppression of the in
famous trade The slavers were never so
bold before. They take their human cargoes

Red sea, and they boldly incur the greatest
